A press release just came out with the news that our 10-year-old “baby” has really grown! :-)
LOS ANGELES, July 16 2009 /PRNewswire/ — SheKnows ( www.sheknows.com ), one of the fastest growing online content and community destinations for women, has reached 10.2 million U.S. unique visitors in the month of June, according to ComScore Media Metrix. Of significant note, SheKnows.com, the flagship property, reached over 3.2 million uniques in June, making it one of the largest women-focused content and community sites on the Web.
SheKnows’ growth was fueled by new partnerships in its Parenting, Pets and Entertainment channels, as well as from improved site structure, better navigation and the addition of community features. In addition, the popularity of the RealMomsGuide, the appeal of SheKnows’ summer beauty & fashion guides, along with a big summer entertainment buzz around celebrity news, TV shows and movie releases, also contributed to SheKnows’ growth.
“Our strategy is to leverage our flagship site and our owned & operated sites while affiliating high-quality web sites that add an additional contextual flavor to the SheKnows offering. That model is very different to that of our competitors, and we are excited to see that our formula is working,” stated Mike Dodge, General Manager of AtomicOnline, owner of SheKnows.
